With a light cough, suppressing some discomfort, Emperor Qing showed a relieved expression, "Donglang, it's great that you can cherish yourself because of your filial piety to your parents!"
"But the Concubine and I both hope that you can succeed."
"Besides, since I have painstakingly planned for you, I will naturally not let you go to Xizhou to be a pawn."
Emperor Qing thought for a moment and said, "How about this? I'll allocate five hundred men to you, and you'll actually be in charge."
"Also, I need you to bring some servants."
Having said that, Emperor Qing also realized that he had made some mistakes - the Ninth Prince was weak.
If a spoiled weakling like him were to go to Xizhou without anyone to take care of him, he might not be able to survive.
As I said, Emperor Qing uses his son, but there is also a little bit of father-son affection between them.
As long as it does not harm Emperor Qing’s interests, Emperor Qing is still willing to show some love.
Emperor Qing showed his fatherly love, and Gu Qingcheng was indeed moved.
She blinked her pure and innocent eyes and said, "Thank you, Father! I knew that you loved me the most!"
Then, she began to ask tentatively: "Father, are those five hundred men really under my command?"
Emperor Qing nodded, "Of course. In name only, I will assign a lieutenant."
In fact, the Ninth Prince is the real commander.
That captain was appointed by Emperor Qing to help the Ninth Prince lead the troops, and was also used to supervise and control the Ninth Prince.
Gu Qingcheng became happier and made a show of pushing things further. "As for the people who serve me, can I, can I choose my own?"
Emperor Qing hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded, "Okay!"
They are just palace maids and eunuchs. It doesn't make much difference whether you choose more or fewer.
Huoshui: ...Alas, that’s because you don’t understand Her Majesty the Queen.
This idiot tells you that you thought you just opened a small hole, but Her Majesty the Queen of Heaven can actually make a big hole for you.
really--
Gu Qingcheng first went to the Ministry of War and received the five hundred soldiers given to her by Emperor Qing.
Then, she called Huo Wuniang over and said, "Wu Niang, these men and horses were given to me by my father. He asked me to take them to Xizhou for training."
"I've never led an army before, and I'm too impatient to do this. Why don't you just help me lead the troops?"
Huo Wuniang widened her eyes. There were so many flaws in Gu Qingcheng's words that she didn't know which one to address first.
First, "Jiulang, are you really going to Xizhou? And, with five hundred soldiers?"
Emperor Qing's imperial edict has been issued, and Huo Wuniang also knows that her fiancé has been punished.
In fact, everyone in the Huo family knew the real purpose of Emperor Qing arranging the Ninth Prince to go to Xizhou.
The Huo family was not afraid.
For now, the Huo family has no intention of rebellion, and they are still willing to "reconcile" with the court.
It’s just that Emperor Qing is rather arbitrary and overbearing. He wants to take back the military power, but is unwilling to provide any protection for the Huo family.
The Huo family is not stupid. They realize that their situation is not good. In order to protect themselves, they are increasingly afraid to give up their last trump card.
In this way, the relationship between the emperor and his ministers seemed to be at a stalemate.
The marriage between Huo Wuniang and the Ninth Prince was an opportunity to break the ice.
The Huo family is already making preparations. If the Ninth Prince can really take away some of the military power, it will show that he has enough strength.
In the fight for the throne among the princes, the ninth prince had a chance to win.
As for whether the Ninth Prince will put away his bow after the bird is killed after it is all gone, that is another game between the two forces.
That’s a matter for the future.
The Huo family felt that all of this could be planned step by step.
Victory or defeat depends entirely on your ability.
You can’t just not do it because you’re worried about this possibility!
Even if it is done, it is still human-made.
General Huo thought so, and Grandmother Huo, Huo Wuniang and others also had a positive attitude.
Therefore, if the Ninth Prince wants to go to the border town to stir up trouble, then he can go. Not only will the Huo family not stop him, they will also give him a little push.
However, what Huo Wuniang didn't expect was, "You, you want me to take charge?"
She is a member of the Huo family, and she is a woman!
The Ninth Prince doesn't care at all?
"yes!"
Gu Qingcheng seemed oblivious to Huo Wuniang's expression of disbelief. She responded in a matter-of-fact tone, "I can barely even ride a horse, how can I lead an army?"
"Wu Niang, you are different! You are the daughter of a general!"
"Not to mention, you're my fiancée! Husband and wife are one! What's mine is yours! And what's yours will be mine, too, right?"
When saying this, Gu Qingcheng looked into Huo Wuniang's eyes, focused and sincere.
Huo Wuniang looked back at "her" steadily——
No matter what the future holds for this couple, at this moment, they trust each other and share weal and woe.
"right!"
Husband and wife are one, there is no distinction between you and me!
Huo Wuniang said silently in her heart, just looking at Gu Qingcheng's eyes, she was willing to take a gamble!
Huoshui: ...I'm so worried. Her Majesty the Queen's character is really low this time.
And her encounter with Huo Wuniang itself was the result of a "calculation"!
